    I'm looking for short term renting accommodation for my family. I'm a nurse dealing directly with suspected COVID 19 patients.
    The issue is that we are currently living with my in-laws while our house is being built. They are both elderly and are high risk. We are unable to separate the communal areas of the house and our own house build has been put on hold.

    I usually use Kearneys out in Terryland and find them great. On Your Bike (?) in bohermore seem good too. Never used them for a service but pick up bits and pieces from him

    I just bought one yesterday in Dunnes in Eyre Sq, just beside the tills where you pay for food (downstairs). They had two kinds.

    Homestore seem to have them regularly, when I looked last week, they were working reduced hours.

    I just bought components and built a PC but can't get Windows booted on it. Just wondering if there are any computer repair shops open in the city centre, or anyone that specialises in this area?

    I know it's not a great time for it but I was hoping to get some design work done on it, working from home with the work laptop which just isn't powerful enough for Illustrator etc.

    Their normal hours are until later in the pm, so I would take it these are their pre close down(assuming they are) hours.

    Edit: I've been told that their closure notice is at the very bottom of both their home and store details page, which is why I missed it on my screen shot.

    I've found this an ongoing issue, companies not updating their platforms about the most up to date situation, or placing that info in the most logical place.

    My car battery died in dunnes carpark last week. My wife got roadside assistance out so started it and got it home but it has not started since. Can anyone recommend a business who will call to our house and replace the battery. We live in the salthill knocknacarra area.

    You could try Ger O’Farrell (across from the spinnaker pub. He has a battery pack that would start the battery there & than.
    Very nice fella too.

    Is the battery dead dead? Would a recharge not fix it? I don;t think car batteries should need to be replaced very often and if it started with a jump then it's probably just flat (disclaimer: not a mechanic).



    Have a look at these guides:

    Cheers, Ger came out and replaced it. All sorted now. He said he has a few similar cases, good idea to turn the car over once a day. I think my battery was near the end of its life and sitting idle for a few weeks probably done it no good.

    Hardwares and garden centres can open again now, they have been asked not to until next week but I'm sure some will.
